Verily, it is the game of games. Offspring of "Our Lady of the Snows," hockey is, among her many varied games, the most fascinating, the most exciting, the most scientific. "Fast ! It eclipses all other games in this respect. Never a second to lose, never a moment to spare — an opportunity once lost is gone forever — and even one little slip, one miss, one fumble, is oftentimes the loss of a match. ........ "Played in every city, town, village and hamlet in Canada, it has aroused more pub- lic interest, more enthusiasm than any atli- letic pastime that the votaries of sport have yet enjoyed, and as tlie succeeding^ years glide Sy it grows m popular lavor. . ' . "But Canada no longer has a monopoly of the sport. The United States has the fever, and ice hockey is now a recognized winter sport where a few years ago it was un- known. ........ "Twenty-tive years ago hockey, as played tfi-day, was an unknown sport. Shinny was played on the lakes, rivers and canals throughout the country, but only a discern- ing eye could discover in this crude, biit infatuating amusement, the grand possibili- ties that a refined game could offer. Witli- out restrictions as to tlie proportions of the stick, the nature or quality' of the puck, the size of the playing space on the ice, or the number of the players, the sport could not develop into a scientific game until such time as it would be discussed and regulated by those who sought its advancement. . . "To the Mcfiill College and Victoria hockey teams of Jlontreal the game of hockey owes its present state. These two were the first regularly organized hockey clubs in the world, the former preceding the latter by a very short time "The convincing, the clinching proof of the fascination of the game is this, that even the gentler sex, not satisfied with enjoying it from the standpoint of spectators, have graciously addeil their own to the many charms that it already boasts by bravely lining up to meet, in gentle combat, their tender adversaries. "It is suprising how many ladies' teams exist in Canada, and althougli we do not read of fast, exciting games between these graceful votaries of the sport, it is a slow, small town that can glory in not one such. Thus hockey players may flatter themselves that their game is honored in a way that no other of the kind may claim." — Arranged from Spaulding's Athletic Libraiy, compiled by Mr. Arthur Farrell. President Hazard's Annual Report. "A full and able report, made by President Hazard to the board of trustees at the close of the year, is just now published. Refer- ring to administrative matters, the jiresident says : 'It has been a year of quiet and steady work, marked by a serene and harmonious spirit. The administrative duties were new- I ly divided, the secretary of the college tak- ing the oversight of the academic pro- grammes of the students. These duties she has most admirably fulfilled, in sucli a man- ner as to gain the confidence and respect, not only of all i-onnected with the adminis- tration, but of the students and the alunmas. The genius for detail, with the comprehen- sive grasp as well, which Miss Pendleton possesses, enabled lier to perform the many dufeieSuwJ\i_clLfalLto_)ier as-bead oj. College- Hkll and also secretary of the college, in a manner Tvhich insures her suca«ss as dean of the college, to whicb office she was ap- pointed in February.' "Continuing, the president's report says, 'The pressing necessity for a science build- ing has been alluded to ; even more urgent is the need for a library. Over .54,000 books are cared for by three librarians, with some student assistants. The library-room is now wholly inadequate. . . . Two depart- ment libraries have been moved to a hall of the fifth floor, which relieves the library both of a number of books and readers. This temporaiy adjustment of the library will be a help, but a permanent building is sadly needed. The books are here ; the stu- dents are here ; there is a con.stant body of about nine hundred readers ; and the need of a library building cannot be too strongly empliasized.' " President Hazard concludes : 'The year ends with a bi-iglit outlook. • The number of students is increasing ; the faculty is able and devoted, the alunm* loyal; gains have been made during tiie year in matters affecting the intellectual life of the college, as well as its material jirosperity, and we can look with gratitude at the past, and hope toward the future.'" B. T. NOTES. " A gathering of AVellesley girls in Colo- rado was held at Colorado College, Coloi-ado Springs, on December 31, 1901, in honor of Miss Stratton, who is now connected with the State University in Boulder. The guests were entertained by Mr:\ JIanly, ( who taught in AVellesley from lS80-'fi2), Mrs. Sarah Coolidge Brooks, '8.5, and Jlrs. Mary (Tilman Ahlers, '88. Among those present were Mrs. Mary Lyon Cheney, 188?-'O0, Mrs. Ruby Harding Fairbank, '81, Mrs. .Junius Hill, honorary member of '93, Miss Mary B. Hill, '93, Miss Florence Hastings, '97, Miss Margaretta Boa?, '99, Miss Ridg- way, '00. The pleasure of the afternoon was nuich increased by a delegation of ten Welleslev girls from Denver. Miss Grace Cook, '99,' and iliss Mary oliphant, '00 being among the number. .^, , "■ An interchange of^coilegfe'ifew-s and ex- periences, dating from 1891 to 1900, made a royal good time, and cheers for Wellesley were never more heartily or loyally given." PADEREWSKI. Announcement is made of an American tour of Paderew.ski under the direction of C. A. Ellis of Symphony Hall, during the coming months. The unique position held by this great pianist makes his return to America a notable event of the musical season and he will undoubtedly arouse the same enthusiasm again whicli has always attended his visits to this country. The actual dates will be announced shortly. On February the first, the new Country Club of "Wilmington, Delaware, will have a Wellesley Day. Miss Marion Talbot, formerly instructor in Domestic Science at Wellesley, and now Dean of Women at the University of Chi- cago, is the originator of a new organization, to be called the Women's Union of the University of Chicago. The union will admit to membership all women of the University, including students, officers and members of the faculty, the wives of stu- dents, the alumniB, and women members of the families of the faculty ' and officers. The union proposes to offer entertainments, such as concerts and lectures, and to make a feature of philanthropy, looking after the sick and neecly students and those desiring to work their way through college, who will be assisted to positions. The Wellesley College Club of Pittsburg, Pa., had a breakfast at the Schenley Hotel on Saturday, .January 4. Thirty-five out of the forty-five members of the club were present. Wellesley songs had been printed. These were tied with Wellesley blue ribbon, and were sung between the courses. Miss Eifle Mac Jlillan, '94, President, gave the only toast. Miss Bertha Di Zere.ga, '01, is doing some work in the New York Settlements. Miss Ethel Reed, formi ;'lyof '01, is teaching at the Portland High S< Ik ol.

COLLEGE NOTES The Academic Council lias consented to tbe students accepting the Challenge of Yassar to a debate, upon two conditions: 1. A certificate of good health for each contestant. 2. The place of meeting must De Wellesley. The Student Government Association has done few better things in its short life than the acceptance of Vassai-'s Challenge to an Intercollegiate Debate. There are too few ties between women's colleges. Exclusive- ness, a part of women's inheritance fiom the past and one of the chief obstacles to their progress, has deprived us of that fellowshii) which collegians everywhere should share. Intercollegiate Associations and Women's Col- lege Clubs in the cities have done away with the exclusiveness, somewhat, among college graduates, but for the undergraduate bodies there has been practically no way to get into touch with each other. Intercollegiates Athletics, which, Tvhatever their abuses, foster not only college spirit and physical training, but also intercollegiate ac- quaintance, are not for us. We hope the day may come when we may row Bryn JIawr or play Smith at Basket Ball. Meanwhile, it is pleasant, and peculiarly fitting for \~ ellesley, that the intellectual contest should come first. The women of coeducational colleges in the west, shut out, as we are, from intercollegiate athletics, have long since found the usefulness of intercollegiate debates and oratorical con- tests. The women of the different colleges have often been the prizp debaters and orators, and have come to know their brothers and sisters of other colleges better, and to love their own college more. So may it be with Wellesley, and may this debate open the way for many similar contests with our sister ( and brother) colleges. A seconcfary, but still important effect will be the renewed interest in debate among us, as in other colleges, the debaters are chosen through a series of trial debates, the training must be valuable to all who try. Wellesley is fortunate in having as her first opponent, in an intercollegiate contest, one of the oldest and best of Momen's colleges, and she owes Vassar her thanks for this chance to meet her. '94.

COLLEGE :nEWS The American College for Women at Constantinople. By Mary Mills Patrick. Ph.D. "There are few institutions in the world that liold a place of so much importance in educational influence as fhe American College for Women, this western college in the east, for the wonderful Straits of the Bosphorus are the key to the eastern situation educationally, as well as geographically and politically. This American college is the only woman's college of western Asia and southeastern Europe, and draws its students from many different lands, uniting various races and blending opposing types in the scholastic world of American college training. Here we find Greek maidens, with their delicate grace, from sunny Athens and the islands of the Mediterranean ; sturdy Sah's from the north, together with their darker sisters from the south and far east. Within the college walls many different tongues fall upon the ear, for there is no woman's college in the world where so many languages are taught. The language of the college is English, but there are well-organized departments besides, in French, ancient and modern Greek, ancient and modern Armenian, Bulgarian, Slavic, Turkish, German and Latin. Race prejudices are, however, forgotten in the bond of common collegiate interests, and in the class-rooms and clubs, on the tennis court and ball ground, all unite in the work and recreations of a happy college life. "The American College for Women is situated in Scutari, the Chrysopolis, or Golden City, of ancient Byzantine times, where the caravans from the ease unloaded their wealth. It overlooks the shin- ing waters of the Marmora, the Princes' Islands, the Bosphorus, and the Golden Horn, and the domes and minarets of Stamboul, while in the distance appears the snow-topped Asiatic Olympus. The air is odorous with the perfume of tropical tiowers, and hazy with the dreamy mist of sea and sky that characterizes the cities of the far south. All is Oriental and picturesque in the environments, but in the college itself the languor of the south yields to western energy and college enthusiasm; for real work is done in this college of the east, and the standard of scholarship is constantly being raised to keep in 'ine with otlier American colleges. This college is an outgrowth of a high school founded in 1S7I ; as -.i result of steady internal growth, and in response to an increasing de- mand for higher education in the east, it was incorporated asacollege in 11100, and empowered by its charter to grant such honors, degrees and diplomas as are granted or conferred by any university, college or seminary of learning in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Theie have been one hundred and thirty graduates of the institution, of nine different nationalities, who are many of them holding ]>ositions of honor in this and other lands. " The one Albanian graduate of the college founded the first school for girls ever taught in the Albanian language. Another, a Dane, passed the government examinations for the position of official trans- lator in Denmark, in English, French, Danish, German and Italian. A graduate of last year has entered the medical department of the University of Berne with honors, and others are writing for the press or engaged in teaching. One of the class was the first Turkish wom- an in the empire to receive the degree of bachelor of arts, and the subject of her graduating thesis was 'Sophism in I'ersia in Kelation to Omar Khiiyyam,' to write which she consulted authorities in Araliic and Persian in the original. "The alumna? of the college organizeil some years ago an alumnic association, and during the last year they have purchased a piece of land adjoining the college, on which stand two buildings, one to be used for a music hall and the other as a cottage. One of the most in- teresting phases of the development of the college is found in the mu- sical department. This is organized after the plan of a German conservatorium, and adds greatly to the opportunities for culture of- fered by the college, and also to the {esthetic side of the college life. Frequent concerts are given, including chorus, piano, violin and organ music, and music by the college choir and chorus forms a de- cided feature of all formal public occasions.''— ie.s/(V'.<< Weekly.
